The 2020 Astronomy Decadal Survey put a "Habitable Worlds Observatory" at the top of the community's projects for the next twenty years. In this talk I will discuss the current state of research and future plans in the search for life via "biosignatures" and "technosignatures". I will review the history of the field and discuss what advances have allowed the ancient question of "are we alone" to finally become one which science might answer.
